Living in the Langstrassenquartier

An assessment of the habitat

The report "Living in the Langstrasse Quarter" presents the results of the survey of around 200 residents of the Langstrasse quarter. The study primarily presents how the habitat is perceived and assessed from the respondents' point of view. At the same time, respondents are given the opportunity to make suggestions for improving the quality of life.

The Langstrasse report was produced within the "Zürich4–Paris18" neighbourhood partnership. It is a comparative study with the Parisian quarter "Goutte d'Or". Core topics of the survey are:

  • Living and quality of life in the district, in private and in public space
  • Personal reference to accommodation
  • What makes the quarter worth living in as a living space? What are the problems?
  • Knowledge and use of social and socio-cultural offers in the district
  • Perception and problematization of the drug problem
  • Movement space quarter: Popular places with a high quality of stay or places that are avoided
